WHERE CAN I FIND YOU ?

 

The morn was bright the day you left us for

good

You took to the sky with your usual happy

mood

The wind and cloud whistled through your

hair

When your precious soul began dancing in the

air

I heard you say your goodbye to all those you

love

Your departed soul ran through the clouds up

above

That day ended my life but you seem to be

content

You may have felt that is where all good ones

went

 

All the loved ones you left behind to mourn

and cry

You know none was ready to say the last

goodbye

Your presence always filled my life with

unique flare

This poor soul has a life that is now all cold

and bare

We laid you to rest in peace you looked so

pleasant

It was a solemn scene the ones you loved were

present

All who who spoke shared memories and

stories told

They talked about your life from younger days

to old

I am not sure when all our hearts will start to

mend

We know it is hard to lose a wife, a mother

and a friend

Every day when the new day begins we look at

the sky

We raise our heads but we only see some birds

that fly

Our nights are darker and the moon does not

shine

The clouds are grey and the fogs cover your

shrine

The wet mist of my tears is all cold and

foreboding

My future is unknown and I am surely

corroding

 

The parrots and birds of our garden sing no

more now

The dawn is dull and dark and the sunset is

all-dim now

The deeper pain of my emotions knows no end

at all

My heart and soul continue to wail, groan and

fall

The roses of my garden no longer give off that

scent

The perfume of joy you gave me has all been

spent

Where has that anticipation gone and where is

my life

There is only stark despair when I do not have

my wife

Unquenched longing and loneliness are all I

expect now

Darkness, sorrows and fears are all my

emotions now

Do you not see that my lonely soul is crying

out for you?

All is so desolate, all is so cold but where can I

find you?
